[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's weird. Nobody in their right mind would sleep in a room with somebody that never talks to them or has any social interaction.

[b]All the PP's who are like, what is the problem, would literally lose their minds if they were forced to share a room with someone who doesn't give them the time of day.[/b]

Just ask for a change in roommates for Spring 2023 or if that is too late just let your child know that if f'ing weird.[/quote]

I’m guessing something like 100% of the people responding in this thread attended college, and were rooming with a total stranger freshman year. That’s why everyone knows how awesome it is when your roommate is gone.[/quote]

I was this room mate. Freshman had to live on campus, but I had good friends a year ahead renting a house with an extra room. I technically lived in a dorm room I never visited. My roommate was very happy with the situation and so was I. [/quote]

Me too.  We were put together because back in the 80s there were relatively few Asians at our college.  All Asian students were paired for roommates.  I am of Chinese descent, he was of Korean descent, but after that, we have almost nothing in college.  After a few weeks, we really didn't like each other.  And, so I spent most of my days with friends in their rooms, at the library, clubs, etc.  I went back to shower, sleep, change clothes and leave again.  I was so glad when the year was over.  The guy in the room next to mine became a good friend and we were roommates for the next two years elsewhere.[/quote]
